The Kentucky Senate adopted Senate Resolution 76 on Feb. 18, 2026, honoring Frank Reichardt for developing and operating the Ryherd scoreboard, a long‑running repository of high school sports statistics in the Commonwealth.
The resolution, read in full on the floor, traced Reichardt's origins in Glasgow, his work in electrical engineering and software, and the creation of the scoreboard in 1997. The resolution said the scoreboard now covers a dozen sports and has recorded hundreds of thousands of games and many millions of points, calls the site a "gold standard" for accessibility and commends Reichardt's contribution to KHSAA athletics.
Senators praised Reichardt's work and the body adopted the resolution by voice vote. The floor remarks included a quotation from Reichardt that "each of these points comes from a player competing as part of a team, and we should never lose sight of the fact that they are the reason we do all of this."
